Legal Answers
7 Questions Answered
Q. if i had a civil judgement against me can i appeal it?
A: This will depend on they type of case and what causes you might have for an appeal. Appeals usually have a short time to file so it is best to retain counsel as soon as possible
Q. do you represent american federal employees residing in europe?
A: It is unclear whether your case in front of the U.S. Supreme Court or a foreign court. Either way, representation is encouraged. You can find appellate attorneys through a search on Justia to view their profiles and then contact them directly if you would like a consultation. Best of luck!
Q. How does one file a notice of appeal judgment
A: This will depend on whether your case is a state or federal case. I am licensed in the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals (federal), but not the state of Colorado. Either way there are time and procedural requirements to file your appeal. You should consult an attorney to guide you through the process.
